In The Family: A Proclamation to the World, the first paragraph states, "We the First Presidency and the Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children."
Families are so important. In order to be exalted and return to our Father in Heaven we must be sealed in the temple and live our life here on earth in family units. In a world where so many people ridicule and try to undermine the family, it's important that we do everything we can to protect our families and nurture them. They are the most important and rewarding things that we will have while we're here on earth. We should do everything we can to ensure that our homes are safe and a place where Christ is the center. When we keep Christ at the center of our homes we are blessed beyond belief, keeping Him the center provides a protection like none other.
